With Librarian Sawyer Regensberg
It took 100 years of Zozobra history to have Santa Fe Public Library’s Sawyer Regensberg to ascend from the depths of the Library’s basement Tech Services. Join us for the rare occurrence as one of our own rises from the dark like Old Man Gloom himself to share their passion for Santa Fe history in celebration of 100 years of the Burning of Zozobra!
Librarian Sawyer Regensberg has dug through Santa Fe Public Library archives and online resources to find the treasures that highlight our City’s culture and history and will present to attendees exciting discoveries from his research. Learn the history and story of this uniquely Santa Fe icon!
